the united states senate. matt by yesterday with the times said this was not a johnsonian moment, in fact it looked quite weak. historically, do you agree with matt by? do you agree with what sam stein said? how significant is it for barack obama to come out and say that he supports gay marriage, despite the fact that he says i'm going to allow states to ban it, despite the fact he said something that we all knew before he talked to robin roberts? >> well, it's not 1957, and it's not by far obviously '64 or '65 where you had federal legislation undoing jim crow and remarkably strong barriers to racial justice. those achievements are not within hailing distance of this. because what the president did was make a rhetorical statement that he -- i think sam has a good point. this is important to a lot of americans. and it signals the president's support of these initiatives, whether he actually puts any political or governmental power attempts behind it is another question. but rhetorically, this is a good thing for libertyianism, people who support the rights of all americans to participate

populations exploded public pension costs and shrank economic growth. if the united states is to avoid similar demographic doom, its salvation will come from one source and one source alone. thattism i grags. according to the pugh research center 82% of america's population increase will come from immigrants, their children and grandchildren. but it won't be enough. the un estimates that the u.s. will need five times that number of new foreign workers to maintain the year 2000's ratio between the elderly and working population. immigrants are good for government budgets. without people, there is no budget. so our job should be as policy makers to bring people here, who want to work. shutting our borders and deporting the millions of immigrants already here won't create fiscal health. the cure for too few workers isn't mass deportation, it is the opposite. without new workers ever greater percentages of americans incomes will be devoted to transfers to the elderly. according to the social security and medicare trustee reports, increase 81% on every single american taxpayer to maintain current b
